Hello!
Forgive me if you've read this kind of thing many times before, but I wanted to introduce myself and ask some questions about your community.
A little background: I'm a writer and studio artist in New York, but - after many years - I've had plenty of the city (not hard to do). A very good friend who knows me well said that Grayton Beach might be just the kind of place I should seriously consider for relocating and starting a new chapter.
Although there is plenty of online information about your area as a wonderful vacation place, I'm more interested in hearing from any residents who could spare this poor newcomer a little time, information, thoughts or insider hints on what it's like to be a real resident and an engaged member of your community. Because this is not a mere whim but a true desire on my part to relocate, to move closer to the ocean, to move back to the South, and to be able to contribute to & be an active person in a place that welcomes creative types (who also work hard!), I assure you that I sincerely appreciate any observations, neighborhood recommendations, year-round rental advice and all that etc. that you may be willing to send my way.
Thank you in advance, and I really do look forward to reading anything you have to say.
